La forêt Nespresso Belux has launched a local initiative. A tree has been offered to all the employees in Belgium and Luxembourg. Here's why.Trees enrich soil and provide vital shade for the coffee farms — and that’s just for starters. A steady temperature is one of the most important environmental factors to affect the quality of coffee, so trees are the perfect addition to a coffee farm. Like parasols presiding over the fields, tree leaves provide natural shade to keep coffee plants cool – and protect against heavy rain – while their roots help prevent soil erosion. But that’s not all trees do. They can generate an extra income for coffee farmers by providing them with wood, fruit, spices and herbs. They also enrich soil with organic matter, absorb carbon dioxide and restore biodiversity as they create a habitat for wildlife. So you’ll understand why we’ve been really busy planting lots of trees. This is just some of what we’ve been up to.Thank you for being part of the Nespresso sustainability story. We hope you enjoy watching your tree grow.
En savoir plus Les arbres que nous plantons ont de grandes ambitions : être bénéfiques non seulement à l’environnement, mais aussi aux personnes qui y vivent. C’est pourquoi nous travaillons avec des ONG et des communautés locales pour sélectionner le bon arbre, au bon endroit, et pour le bon usage. C’est pour cela que nous réfléchissons à moyen et long terme, car nous ne nous contentons pas de planter des arbres : nous voulons les faire pousser.
